During the French Revolution.

An English witness relates how in De-
tober of 1894 she was one day standing
at the door of shop TO which beggar
came 10 buy a slice of pumpkin. The
shopkeeper refused to let ii go for less
than the price she had originally fixed,
whereupon the beGgar msolenily told her
that she was gangrcnae 'aristocratie.
The unhappy shonkeeper turned pale and
cried ont. My civi,,ne is beyond dis
pute. but take the j,lmpkm,' The beg
CARS reply was Nh, NOW You are Il
good republican,. The miIttered com
ment of the shopkeeprr w@s. 'leS. Yes,
It's a fine ding 10 be 4 good republican
when one has not bread to eat.
When the threat Of beggar could
make an honest and insignificant person
like this old market woman tremble and
turn pale, il j, not surprising to find that
for MANY months after the actual reign
of terror was over, people vsv generally
went about under continual sense of
apprehension. The Parisians of those
DAVIS are said to have hahitually worn a
revolutionary aspect. They had been
at one time the frankest and most viva
cious people in the world-gay, open,
CHEEKY and polite The terror had made
them morose and suspicious. They walked
with their heads bent on their breasts.
and many of them had contracted habit
of looking from under the lids of their
half shut eyes before speaking, especially
to strangers The bolder and more reck-
less spirits staggered about in ultra revo-
lutionary costume; carmagnole of rough
cloth, leather breeches, top boots and a
bonnet rouge with preposterously large
tricolored cockade at the side. Temple

lF INTEREST TO FARMERS.
Nitrogen Mansrue.u

COMMERCIAL FERTILIZERS AND THEIR
ECONOMICAL APPLICATION TO THE SOIL.
Most elaborate experiments are yearly
made in Great Britain, in relation to COM
mercial fertilizers aud their economical
application TO the soil. In many localities
the question OF commercial fertilizers Is an
important ore. Many farmers err in sup
posing that giyin a certain amount of COM
mercial fertilizers available, farm-yard
manure may be dispensed with. This,
however, is not the fact. There is large
available nutrition in most soils IL IL be
locked up. Among the other constituents
furnished by barn-yard manure is the hum
us IL furnishes to the SOIL which under the
action of heat, moisture and potash forms
nitrates, the most costly material in agricul
tue. In relation to the importance of
barn-yard manure: In the process of de-
cay, combustion of carbon and a format-
ion of carbonic acid, with liberation of
heat, takes place in the soil, analogous to
that which occurs when the food of animals
undergoes similar change. The result of
these changes in the organic nitrogen of
the soil, is the separation of the carbon and
nitrogen, and the combination of the latter
with hydrogen, fornlin ammonia, and with
oxygen, forming nitric acid.
This uniting with potash forms nitrate of
potash (salpeter), or with lime, nitrate of
lime.
An English journal states that. "When
DR.. Voelcker and Mr.. jenkins made their
report of the farming of Belgium, they re-
and recommended the economy of replac-
ing it with an occasional dose of nitrate of
soda; and il is quite in keeping with this
advice that the farmers in the neighborhood
of Edinburgh, who use large amount of
town dug and sell rye grass, haye found
nitrate of soda a very valuable manure, on
account of the large quantity of unused
minerals accumulated In the soil.
'Farm-yard manure yields minerals as
we'll as nitrogen, and may be called on
that account a universal manure. One
hundred pounds OF nitrate of soda contains
about the same amount of nitrogen as a ton
Of good dung; but there is this difference
between the two manures-the nitrate oi
of soda after yielding its nitrogen to to the
drop, only furnishes in addition soda, which
has little value; whereas in the nitrificatior
of the netrogen in the dung, there are about
sixty-two pounds of mineral set free, includ
ing twelve pounds of potash and clever
pounds of phosphoric acid. These figures
are given by Sir John IIawes; but they
vary according to the high or low feeding
of the animals, the quantity of litter, and
the fresh or rotten condition OF the dung
Taking the case of ordinary farn-yard dung
Mr.. Bernard Dyer finds that four loads
each weighing ton, contain torty-fyt
pounds of nitrogen, twenty-six pounds oi
phosphoric acid, and forty-fye pounds oi
potash

Fighting Insects.


No subject deserves more attention at
the hands of farmers, and of hort c ilturists
in particular, than economic entomology,
or the study of insect friends and enemies.
Insect transformation and habits are not
only interesting and wonderful, but they
are of much practical use to the agrtcul-
turallst. Comparatively little is yet known
of the insect world, although most injuri-
GUS and beneficial insects have been pretty
well stueied. The careful and observing
farmer can add much TO the science of
econimic entomology. By his occupation
he is emnently supplies with opportunities
for experiment. We would encourage ex-
perin,enring with different insecticides.
Many insects can no doubt be fought to
more advantage in the near future than
they now are, by the use of some lnsecti-
cides yet unknown. The important irsecti-
cides now in use are Paris green, pyreth
rum PERSIAN insect powder) white helle-
bore, whale-oil soap, carbolic acid, soft
soap, kerosene oil and London purple. No
todub preparations of various native plants
will be found to be as effective ln certain
cases as in pyrethrum. Many plants are
noxious TO one or more species of insects
Decoctions made of barks and leaves are
found in some cases to be excellent nsecti-
cides. The powdered heads of many daisy
like plants should be tried. We would es-
pecially advise the trying OF the COM
mon plant called leabane terigeron) Pyre-
thrum is made by powdering the heads of a
closely-allied plant. We haYe known
dccoction or tea TO he made OF tomato
leaves. which gave surprisieg results.

Who Fired Hotel Del Monte2

MONTEREY, CAL, April 25.-The evil

of simmons guilt is not known, but Ii 10
said by Chief Brown that they have
three witnesses who will testify that
they saw simmons walk away from the
direction OF the fire few minutes be-

when IL was found the books were un

made, iT was then discovered that
Simmons WAS short $4,000 In his sc-

More of the Schnabei Snatching.

BERLIN, April 25.-The French govern
ment has sent to Berlin documents re-
lating to the Schnabel affair, including
COmmissary Gsulch's two letters invit-
Ing Schnabel to meet him. The North
German Gazette says that Schnabel
tried to escape back into French terri
tory when seized by the Ger
man agents, but that he was
overtaken before he could cross
the frontier line. Montags Blatt de-
clares that Schnabel had six subordi-
nate agents who were acting as spies
for General Boulanger, the French war
minister. One Of these agents was u
man named Kuhn, who was dismissed
by Schnabel, and subsequently entered
the German service. He made a reve-
lation which led to the arrest OF the
other agents and much evidence was
collected thereby against Sohnabel,
who was notified some weeks ago that
warrants had been issued for his arrest,
and would be executed II he crossed the
frontier. Schnabel was visited in prison
at Metz yesterday by his wife and son.
They were allowed to converse
through the bars, in German,
for about twenty-five minutes. They
were stopped by the warden when
they began to talk of the arrest. The
authorities handed to the wife articles
found in SohnAbel's possession. 1t Is re-
ported in some quarters that it was with
the object OF seeing his pocket book
and other papers containing memoranda
useful to Germany that the arrest OF
Schnabel was ordered.
